This is our second time staying at the Wren. Staff is friendly and helpful. We were allowed to check in a little early. This hotel is a gem! Some of the best hotel staff I've experienced. They really go out of their way to accommodate their guests. If you are staying in Dublin, please consider this hotel!

Great location, steps from great shopping, bars and restaurants. Staff were no great, didn't seem helpful. The pillow was truly terrible, hard and no shape. I asked for an alternate pillow option and was told there were no other options. Check in staff were borderline rude. Breakfast was really good, food was delicious, not a big range of coffee/tea options. Rooms are small but perfect. Hotel was quiet for the location.
